Beausejour Stadium, St Lucia
Built in 2002, the Beausejour Stadium in St Lucia boasts of one of the best cricketing infrastructures in the Caribbean. Its relatively short life span notwithstanding, the Beausejour Stadium has already scored a few firsts under its belt. On May 10, 2006, the Beausejour Stadium hosted the first ever day-night One Day International cricket match in the West Indies between Zimbabwe and the West Indies.

Because of the top-class infrastructure, the Beausejour cricket stadium clinched the 'Blue Package' of the world cup matches consisting of all of England's first round games and one semi-final. In total the stadium will host 6 first round Group C matches and one of the semi-finals on April 25, 2007.
